I love the rebelliousness of snail mail, and I love anything that can arrive with a postage stamp. There's something about that person's breath and hands on the letter.

I feel like I'm the most forgiven actress I can think of, probably because of this short memory people have!

When I was 12, all I wanted was to be good at school, and to do something admirable, something you can't take away from me because I'm not popular or beautiful enough.

I have just enough attention to feel glamorous and important.

I'm a painter, that's where I started out, at four years old, that was my first love as far as expression. So, I'm not a painter in the sense of, "Please come see my paintings" but, I do understand the value of not looking over the artist's shoulder while the work is in progress.

I love my work, but there is no price you can put on what you miss when you are away from your kids.

Independent films have a very different cachet than success films.
